Default Best Window Cleaner?

I have tried a bunch of different glass cleaners on my Z, Windex, Armor Glass Cleaner, 20/20, GM Glass Cleaner, etc, and I keep having a problem with the window getting a white haze after a few days. It almost looks like fog on the inside of the windows. I don't smoke so that isn't it. I've heard it could be the new plastic releasing particles or something like that, is this true? I'm getting sick of having to clean my windows every few days.

yeah i had that problem before too... i've found that Stoner's Invisible Glass works great with a microfiber towel. Dries up quickly without a haze. You can get it at most auto stores. Comes in an aerosol hair spray-type can

Yes, it's the vinyl emitting gases not your window cleaners. Not really much you can do about it. I've found that since using Aerospace 303 protectant there is less "fogging" then with other products I've used.

Yep, 303 will help keep it to a minimum. Window hazing is usually from Armor-All or some other equally bad protectant on the dash/doors vaporizing. If you clean your interior plastic and vinyl regularly and don't use any protectant you can all but eliminate the haze - but as a trade off with protection. I say go for the 303.
